The development kit of the next-gen Xbox is reportedly codenamed ‘ Anaconda ’, if Windows Central senior editor Jez Corden is to be believed.

Corden recently took to Twitter to share this interesting tidbit. “The next-gen Xbox/dev kit is codenamed “Anaconda,” in-keeping with the reptile theme”, he wrote. Please note that this codename only refers to the name of the console’s development kit, and not the console’s actual name. The dev kit for Microsoft’s Xbox One X (Xbox Scorpio) was codenamed Chuckwalla, while the codename for the Xbox One was ‘Durango’.

While many have reported that ‘Xbox Scarlet’ will be Microsoft’s next-gen Xbox console, several reports suggest that ‘Scarlet’ is in fact the name Microsoft’s next-gen project that includes a family of devices broken into several tiers.
